Developers Louis Birdman, Gregg Covin, Kevin Venger and Regalia Group along with New York-based Plaza Construction, have announced that the highly anticipated One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects has topped off. The 62-story tower with 83 half- and full-floor residences marks the late Pritzker Prize winner Hadid's first and final residential skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere. This milestone is paired with a rendering release of the amenity spaces, revealing new architectural details and further insight into Zaha Hadid’s vision. The project is on track for an early completion in late 2018.

“We’re now one step closer to revealing Zaha Hadid’s forward-thinking design,” says Louis Birdman, one of the co-developers on the project. “Even in its current state, the building already stands out as the most iconic architectural work on Miami’s skyline. We’re excited to have developed something so unique and special for Miami.”

The new renderings of One Thousand Museum showcase the project’s Sky Lounge as well as the double-height Aquatic Center with indoor pool located at the top of the tower. New renderings also show the Lifestyle Center and Spa, which overlooks the tower’s Sun and Swim Terrace level. Additional amenities include a private on-premise, bank-quality vault, multimedia theater and private dining room. The building will also offer a most unique asset, a private helipad, available for residents on-demand to take them to nearby destinations, which is currently the only planned helipad on a private residential skyscraper in all of Florida. Interior construction has already started for the amenity spaces, also designed by Zaha Hadid Architects.

“This is a project that will not only enhance Miami’s skyline, but also redefine the standard of luxury for residential projects,” said Brad Meltzer, President of Plaza. “We do not shy away from challenging projects, as such we were immediately interested when we saw the overall complexity of the job. To date, the project team has faced some major tests, but the project has remained on schedule and we’re looking forward to the successful completion.”
